I understand the concept you are referring to, it hurts more psychologically to pay with cash than credit for instance, but if you are concerned about the time savings between swiping a card and tapping it, then you are missing the point. By the time you are at the register, you've already made the decision to buy regardless of payment method...

Quote from KMan :
That ship has sailed. I very rarely pay with cash these days, mainly to refill laundry cards, register tips and donations, and maybe a convenience store snack. It's SOOOOO much easier to use plastic or an app. I get that cash makes purchase management easier, but not by THAT much. Plus cash and coins are filthy.

For me, cash makes purchase management way harder - there's no record of where the cash went. With credit, the full transaction history downloads to my computer.

Cash makes you more aware of the amount you have available and the amount you are spending, which is definitely useful for some people. But I don't see how it makes managing anything easier.

I'm still waiting for Chase to pay out points for the earlier deals: pay card balance with Chase bank account for three months, and make two $50 payments for AT&T fiber

While ok to get this deal...its not advisable to make paying an even easier job without much thought from our perspective (not to mention the security aspect)...which is what they are after...

Quote from morph2_7 :
My previous spending habit: 90% cash, 10% card. It is the opposite since the start of pandemic, about 95% card, 5% cash. Gasoline cash discount is a lot more than CC reward points so I use cash. The rest is plastic.
Are the gas stations around you offering massive cash discounts? or do you need a better gas cashback card? I haven't seen cash discounts of more than a few cents near where I live, though I visited my parents recently and saw a whopping nickel. I still paid the credit price to get 12-13cents cashback via Costco 4%

Plastic and apps are better in basically every way.
You do realize that plastic and apps come at a substantial cost to you, right? Think of it this way: once upon a time, if Peter needed to pay Paul, he simply handed him some cash. Now along comes Pat who offers himself as a go-between. Obviously Pat has to make money for performing this service because he has to make a living. So where does this extra money come from? From Peter or Paul or both. In the case of credit cards the extra money comes from merchant fees and those "rewards" we all love so much (which the merchants pay, not the credit card issuers), which get passed back to us, the consumers, in the form of higher prices.

How can we identify from the credit card statement if a purchase was tap to pay? Does it say anything? It looks like a normal purchase. I mean how does the CC issues know that the transactions were tap to pay?

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought.…May God have mercy on your soul.

Yea. It's Chase trying to reduce credit card fraud. The chip serves the same purpose but apparently too difficult for ppl to use lol.
